Config - how do I ignore a single mob

[DeathFromAbove]

Not a named just 1 random mob its behind a wall and my puller constantly wants to pull it but there are other mobs like that in the zone. with that name its just a random trash mob

 

[Maskoi]

I am sorry there is not. Mobs that kiss can't reach are added to a temp ignore list and should blacklist it for like 5 mn before it resets. you can increase the time by editing the line in the Kiss macro below.

 /varset PullAlertTimer 5m

Change the 5m to like 20 m for 20 minutes,

Maskoi, Can't you add a mod to an alert list using the mobs ID? If you can do that there might be a way to add a specific mob to the alert list, but it would require a minor change.

 

[Maskoi]

it uses an alert list it just refreshes every 5 mins. 7.4 will address this issue which I will be releasing tomorrow.

 

[ctaylor22]

The 5 minute refresh wouldn't be the issue. you would still need to add the Mob(By ID ) to the list after clearing the alert list. If you had a specific mob you wanted to ignore, but you would still want to pull all the other mobs with the same name. You would have to be able to add the 1 mob to the alert list by ID. At least that is my understanding of what ylarik24 is asking for.

Well, as I am no guru macro writer would this flow/though process work as either a down or holy flag?

If mob ID is between short distance and this long distance then ignore.

I am guessing once the mob id is in the alert cue then that variable would be used

 

[ctaylor22]

This is how it could work. This is only an example of 1 way to do this. This example also assumes you have various plugins loaded, like MQ2Map, etc..

After you have started Kissassist on your puller/puller tank. You open up your map right click on the mob(Target mob) you want to ignore. Click on a social key that is defined to trigger an event that adds the targets ID to a list. Now in kissassist where the refresh, than Maskoi is referring to, is being executed. At the very end you could add the list of ID's to the alert list and bam all the targets you want to ignore will be ignored.

There are other methods that could be used to determine what mobs to ignore, but I would want to do it manually why others would want some automatic way of doing it. but none of them would adhere to the K.I.S.S. standards.

Is there a way to add quest givers and the like to be ignored .. my pullertank keeps targeting Groot in HOT and trying to pull him.

 

[Warlock88]

Yes Open up your kissassist_info.ini and find the zone you are hunting in. Then set the mob you want to ignore in the" MobsToIgnore=List up to 10 mobs. Use full names i.e. a green snake,a blue tiger,a wide eye ooze or NULL"

 

[rodd996]

Is there a simple way to add a mob to a longer ignore list? say 3 to 5, 5 min ignores adds to a 1 hour ignore list. I am not a code writer so am unsure of how this type of flag system would work. Just a thought though

 

[ctaylor22]

The ignore list is currently set to refresh every 5 minutes, but it gets reset anytime the puller runs out of mobs to pull. There is not an easy way to maintain the alert list, not even for those of us that code. You would have to maintain a list of ID's of the mobs you want to ignore and have them added to the alert list each time it is built. The problem is how do you build the list of ID's and how do you figure what ID's go in the list? There are just so many things that could happen to botch the list even if you could get it built.
